Hi All,
I've encountered issues with my stations upload to twitter, Coincidently as I changed the PC I used to operate Cumulus. However, have been lead to believe that Twitter's change to API v1.1 to be the issue. Any Ideas on what steps to take and how to get around this? Have a large group of followers via Facebook that would really like this data up and running.

I have installed the beta version 1.9.4 of cumulus, but no change in status of yet.
I have also tried removing the OauthToken= & OauthTokenSecret= but have had no luck with this either.
Also have checked my login info for any errors and cant find any issue.

Thanks

Cumulus has been using v1.1 for some time now, and is still Tweeting for me. But there may be an issue with obtaining the tokens that I'm unaware of. I'll investigate.

Is the clock and timezone on your PC correct?

I deleted my tokens, and they were successfully retrieved at the next update (note that they don't get written to cumulus.ini immediately). The first tweet fails with "403 forbidden" but subsequent ones work (this has always been the case, I have no idea why).

And the clock is the winner. Day on the new PC was set 3 days out. time was correct. Thanks for the help. FYI 1.9.4 works a treat so far ;-)
